Is it worth me flashing from 1.6 to 1.8? I love it the way it is minus the wireless tether not working..... any help?  |
Nandroid backup restores your phone to the state it was in when you did the backup.
In other words, if you're on 1.6 and do a nandroid backup then install 1.8 and restore you're backup. You're backup was a backup of 1.6 so you'll be back to version 1.6 like nothing ever happened.
What you need it Titanium Backup. It will backup your apps and settings.
To be honest, I haven't seen a huge difference from 1.6 - 1.8. I'm not in 4G area, and I don't use WirelessN so I don't know if there is anything else I should see in terms of difference.
You could just stay on 1.6. And, wireless tethering works fine on 1.6. Just download it from the Market and reinstall it.
Now, if you really just want to run the latest version 1.8, you'll need to flash 1.7 w/ OTA first

Then install the 1.8 of your choice.
